Chapter 40: Strange Disease
"Gao Cai" is not Zhaolin's name at all, it is just a nickname he used to hide his identity every time he left the palace. This nickname was given by Zhaolin himself. He felt that he was very talented, so he called himself "Gao Cai".
"Haha, I originally wanted to call you Brother Zhaolin, but when I saw them both bowing, I did the same!" Yun Keyu said.
"What are you doing here?" Zhao Lin asked.
"We were wondering where Chen Woyin could escape to," Yan Moying said.
"Really?" Zhao Lin asked expressionlessly. He thought to himself: Humph, even Chen Woyin can say something like "Brother Mo Ying is the best to me!"
"What's wrong? Brother Zhaolin, are you in a bad mood?" Yun Keyu asked with his head tilted.
"No." Zhao Lin said calmly, "You said, the palace is so heavily guarded, how could Chen Woyin escape?"
"You mean, he is still in the palace?" Yan Moying thought of another possibility after hearing Zhao Lin's words.
"Wow, if that's the case, it's so scary, such a person lurking in the palace..." Yun Keyu said.
"Hasn't it always been like this?" Zhao Lin said casually.
"Why, are you concerned about the things in the palace now?" Yan Moying asked with a smile.
Zhao Lin knew that he was not concerned about the affairs of the palace, but was concerned because he was depressed about Chen Woyin's affairs, so he couldn't help but say: "I just hate him for deceiving me..." At this point, he suddenly remembered that Yun Keyou was present, so he stopped. How could she hear such a thing?
This has aroused Yun Keyu's interest. "Oh? He cheated on you? What happened? Tell me!" Yun Keyu blinked.
"It's nothing. He deceived the palace, so of course he deceived me!" Zhao Lin said.
At this moment, a guard reported to the prince that King Jingyin suddenly fell seriously ill.
Zhao Lin quickly rushed to King Jingyin's bedroom and saw Liu Qimei crying beside the bed.
"What disease does father have?" Zhao Lin asked the imperial physician. "I am useless and cannot diagnose it..." an imperial physician replied.
Liu Qimei said with tears in her eyes: "Your father suddenly fainted. After waking up, he was unconscious, his limbs were numb, and he was talking nonsense. All the imperial doctors in the palace were invited, but no one could diagnose why this happened. They all said that his condition was not recorded in medical books, and they also said that they were afraid..." Then she cried even harder.
"You step back!" King Jingyin suddenly said to Liu Qimei in a trance.
Liu Qimei thought that these were words he said when he was unconscious, so she did not leave.
"Go!" King Jingyin shouted.
Liu Qimei heard it again and went out.
At this time, Zhao Lin suddenly remembered that Yin Ruchen might have a solution, so he called Yin Ruchen to King Jingyin's bedroom.
Yin Ruchen felt the pulse of King Jingyin. King Jingyin looked at Yin Ruchen and smiled at her. Suddenly, he stretched out his hands to hug Yin Ruchen. Yin Ruchen had to press the acupoints of King Jingyin to make him unable to move temporarily.
"Miss Yin, how is my father?" Zhao Lin asked anxiously.
"Your Majesty, has this situation ever happened before?" Yin Ruchen asked.
"Never! What happened to him?"
"He was poisoned, but the poison didn't enter his body overnight, so it's difficult to diagnose."
"How could he be poisoned if he didn't go anywhere..." Zhao Lin muttered to himself. Then he asked the eunuch Liu Weizhun: "Has my father changed his diet or medication?"
